Just be honest and tell them the truth Al.
You have close family friends who coach HS football in and around the Stillwater metroplex, you pulled some strings, and grinded all over Gundy's wife thus drawing him into a grudge-match he will never win.

Regardless though, can someone please tell me the reason of scheduling a tough OOC.
If you win the SEC with one loss you will not go to the BCS champ game with that schedule.
So the answer to your question is no, there is no reason for A&M to schedule good OOC opponents.

Its like Bamas SEC schedule.

A&M has a very "Bama like" SEC schedule too.

At least y'all played La Tech last year. This year Rice SMU and New Mexico may not win a combined 10 games
Edit: Whoops.
Rice was 7-6 last year. Won bowl game against AFA.
SMU was also 7-6 and beat the snot out of Fresno State in their bowl.
That's not to say our OOC schedule doesn't suck - it clearly does. Lost the pigs, which was the big one. And I think it will be at least 2015 before any Big 12 teams will play A&M.

I think we are going to end up with a TCU series and a Texas Tech series at a minimum in the next few years.

Me too, and that would be fantastic... all except for the part about Aggie students who haven't been forewarned going to Lubbock.

ahh well... all I can say is don't.
and if you do, wrap it up so you don't get Raider rash.

I really hope we play Tech OOC. It would be an awesome non conference game atmosphere regardless of how much we make fun of their fans

I say it too much on the A&M board but I wish A&M and Arky could work a deal with Jerry to where we alternate playing Tech in JerryWorld as an OOC game so our conference games could be home and home.
That would probably require Tech and Baylor to drop out of their JerryWorld game though.

Your out of conference schedule is Pathetic. You are one if the top programs in the nation and you aren't playing anybody outside the SEC with a pulse.

Wrong! There's no way to say that too much. Think about it: Travel to Fayetteville every other year vs. Lubbock??? Why would that even be a question? Added benefit: Arlington cops would arrest a lot more of those lunatics than Lubbock cops would, which would be a plus for America. Go, America!
KK has already said he's open to playing A&M (after JFF leaves, which is understandable). I'd think Tech would jump at the chance to play in Jerry World in a bigger game.

If you think it's all about making fun of their fans, I submit you've never been to a game in Lubbock. No offense or anything, but the entire city is populated with lunatics. Violent lunatics.

First of all, don't care. All MSU is going to have for their OOC scheduling is an 0-1 record to kick off the season. Meanwhile, we'll be Rice by 40 get ready for Bama.
Second, the conference switch locked us into shitty mid-major/FCS opponents for several years.

I actually just got off the phone with SumDog Millionaire and he said he'll work on it. He didn't know Al Bundy bulldog was dissatisfied with out OOC scheduling, our 2nd season in our new conference. Tough to count Arky as both. We'll see what that USCe AD can work out for us.
Posted on 7/25/13 at 3:26 pm to Al Bundy Bulldog
Overall, it's a fair OOC schedule compared to other SEC schools.

When it gets to 2015 ticket prices this shitty schedule will piss me off. Need to win MNC in 2013 and then start having Georgia, the cocks, UT, and Florida visiting year in and out.

This reminds me of LSU being scared of LA Tech each and every year.
